U2 frontman Bono and his bandmate The Edge enjoyed an idyllic yacht trip in Ibiza on Monday on the £12million superyacht owned by the latter, real name David Howell Evans. 

The rockers, aged 61 and 60 respectively, went shirtless for their day on the shores as they larked around - enjoying lunch on the beach and indulged in some water sports while living it up on The Edge's superyacht CYAN, which he purchased with pals in 2008 for an eye-popping £12m. 

The group, who were joined by Bono's best friend Guggi, real name Derek Rowen, appeared to be ready to unwind as they ventured along the shores on the 140ft yacht, which features six cabins and accommodation for 12 guests.

Bono looked in relaxation mode during the jaunt as he donned leaf-print swimming shorts and a black tee which he whipped off ahead of making his way into the crystalline waters. 

The sexagenarian wore a pair of rock star worthy Ray Ban sunglasses and comfortable black slip-on sandals. 

The Edge meanwhile also wore graphic print shorts as he enjoyed a shower on the back of the yacht, making the most of the end of summer on the swanky vessel.  

When The Edge purchased the vessel three years ago, he was keen to clear up confusion over who owned CYAN - making it very clear he was in fact the owner of the boat, not the band frontman.

He said at the time: 'It's not Bono's yacht at all, it's mine. Bono doesn't know a thing about boats. For years it was a dream of mine to own a yacht, but to be honest, it was a bit out of my league. So myself and a few friends got together, chipped in, and bought the Cyan. I don't know where the story that Bono owns it came from.'

His wife Morleigh Steinberg oversaw the redesign of the yacht, which happened in St Tropez in 2008. 

The Edge explained: 'She's now been totally refurbished and we're really happy with her. Morleigh has totally overseen all the work onboard and it's great. So it's now a really hip ship!'

The boat lacks for absolutely nothing when it comes to luxuries, with all the mod-cons fitted for guests. CYAN includes a state-of-the-art music system, an on-deck jacuzzi, swimming platform, vast dining area and bar.
